[zed420]

Hi Everyone

I wonder if anyone can help me, I bought myself a ML 270CDI on 2002 plate. The query that I have is What is the highest coolant temperature it should go to? mine hits the 90C mark is this normal?

Thanks in advance

Hi Zed,

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your purchase.
Sounds as if your thermostat is doing its job correctly to me.

Agree with ron, sounds perfectly normal to me.

On all MBs visco fans come in at 80c and electric fans at 100c

unless the a/c is on and it comes in at varying temps due to the a/c gas pressure.

I really thank all of you it was a greate help. I was slightly worried as the temperature needle kept climbing towards 90C mark I wasn't sure if this was normal.

thanks again

Zed
